Kelly's Market

"This little market is next door to Smiley’s Burger Club and offers grocery necessities (usual suspects like pasta, milk, and canned goods) and a surprisingly large selection of craft brews and wines. But their superpower is their deli. At the counter tucked on the side, you’re invited to build your own sandwich. But just get one of their signature creations because they’re tough to top. Try our favorite, the fiery Rah’s Inferno—a pile of Cajun turkey with pepperjack and spicy ranch on a baguette. There are stools to devour your sandwich on-site, but most people grab and go here." - juli horsford, jacinta howard, nina reeder

"This little market in Decatur is next door to Smiley’s Burger Club and offers grocery necessities (usual suspects like pasta, milk, and canned goods) and a surprisingly large selection of craft brews and wines. But their superpower is their deli. At the little counter tucked on the side, you’re invited to build your own sandwich. But just get one of their signature creations because they’re tough to top. Try our favorite, the fiery Rah’s Inferno— a pile of Cajun turkey and lettuce with pepperjack and spicy ranch on a baguette. There is seating to devour your sandwich on the spot (stools that overlook a large bay window), but most people grab and go here. Food Rundown Rah’s Inferno If you like spicy sandwiches, get this one because your tongue will tingle and you get a lot of Cajun turkey in every bite. video credit: Juli Horsford B.L.A.S.T This is a hyped-up version of a BLT with the addition of smoked salmon, a dollop of mayo, and a slice of avocado. You may never be able to tolerate a plain ‘ole BLT again. video credit: Juli Horsford Local Yokel Since this one (green tomatoes, bacon, fried onions) is pressed, it sometimes gets squished too thin. And the pimento cheese is doled out by someone who definitely hates the Southern spread—we need more. photo credit: Juli Horsford Pee Wee Herman Loaded with salty pastrami, this pressed reuben is really good when done right. So ask them to press lightly because the bread easily gets slimy when it's too thin to absorb the sauce and sauerkraut juices. The Mulligan It doesn’t get more classic than The Mulligan. It comes loaded down with turkey, tomato, cucumber, avocado, bacon, cheddar cheese, and mayo—all double stacked on toasted multigrain bread so high it’s more of a mountain than a sandwich." - Juli Horsford

"Located across the street from Kimball House, Kelly’s Market is full of everything good: beer, ice cream, and loads of snacks. But the sandwich lineup is worthy of exploration, particularly the Tanwich. Sliced chicken and Spotted Trotter bacon join forces with roasted red peppers and onions tucked underneath melted provolone. A soft baguette holds it all together, garnished with lettuce, tomato, and ranch dressing. A comfort sandwich if there ever was one." - Austin L. Ray

"Located across the street from Kimball House in Decatur, pick up chips and dip, cheeses and meats, wine and beer, and a variety of fresh-made cold and hot sandwiches at Kelly’s Market. People can even order online before they arrive." - Eater Staff
